Closing account

[Needhelpplease3]

Hello. So there is a problem, I created Paypal account a while back. I, for some reason created it to the US. I now, years later want to create paypal EU account. So the best thing to do that is to close this account. But there is a pending transaction that i have to claim to close the account. But i dont have an US bank to claim it. I was told to call the support but it would be quite expensive for me to call abroad. I dont care about the money just want to close my account. Ty for the reply!

Paypal is country specific so if you move countries you have to open another paypal account in the country you reside in and add an address / phone number / bank accounts / cards from within that country.

You should really withdraw any funds / resolve issues / remove cards and bank accounts / cancel any subscriptions and close the old Paypal account before you move countries. If you don't then you may have problems doing so once you have moved and may need to contact customer services for help to resolve things.

You can however in some countries add a U.S bank account (not card) to your paypal account. This is because paypal is a U.S company.
If you have that option then it should show in your paypal wallet.

Contact options for each countries Paypal customer services are accessed by clicking help/contact bottom left of Paypal pages.

1. Paypal phones (you can use the guest option if you can't log in).
2. Live chat is also randomly available.
3. You can send them a message, (during business hours you may also be able to message whilst logged out).
4. Have you considered contacting Customer Service via Facebook or Twitter?
You can send them a personal message from their Facebook or Twitter pages.
